New “Guardians of the Galaxy” Teaser Trailer [VIDEO]

A very short (but action-packed) teaser trailer for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy found its way to YouTube earlier today. The teaser trailer is teasing the release of the full trailer that will air later tonight during ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. Considering what they’ve crammed into the super short trailer below, it’s definitely worth staying up late to watch the whole thing–but we’ll also be posting it first thing, too.

This trailer gives us a glimpse of just about every member of the team in action such as Groot, the giant tree man who will be played by Vin Diesel. You can also catch a glimpse of the great military mammal Rocky Raccoon, voiced by Bradley Cooper, standing just over Groot’s soldier unloading an entire clip into some unseen threat. Really, look closely…

We also caught a quick but noticeable shot of Yondu, the mystic hunter who is shaping up to be one of the more interesting characters since he’ll be played by the gruff Michael Rooker of Walking Dead fame. He’s got a strange mix of hard charging hunter and stoic mystic on the comics pages and it will be fun to watch Rooker pull off such a varied character since he’s usually plays guys who run head first into burning situations while gleefully screaming at the top of his lungs.

Of course, we can never resist posting a shot of a hot alien babe no matter what kind of sci-fi action epic we’re covering and even Guardians of the Galaxy has us covered, thanks to Zoe Saldana stepping in to play the green skinned alien warrior Gamora. You’re welcome.
